Ingredients:

Serving

1 medium spaghetti squash
1-1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
5 center-cut bacon strips, chopped
1 medium leek (white portion only), coarsely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tbsp king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine or additional reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup half-and-half cream
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 can (2-1/4 oz) sliced ripe olives, drained
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1-1/2 tsp minced fresh sage
1 tsp minced fresh thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

Directions:

Cut squash in half lengthwise; discard seeds. Place squash cut side down on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 15-18 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook chicken over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Remove from the skillet.
In the same skillet, cook bacon and leek over medium heat until bacon is crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon mixture to paper towels. Add garlic; cook for 1 minute. Stir in flour until blended; gradually add the broth, wine and cream. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in remaining ingredients. Add chicken and bacon mixture; heat through.
When squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to separate strands. Serve with chicken mixture. Yield: 6 servings.
